Swartz Creek-Clio took 104 shots on goal in their third consecutive victory, but goaltender Brent Smiles made 97 saves for KBH United. Teammate Trever Hunter scored one goal.

Brandyn Matte scored two goals and an assist and Zach Atwell scored once with two assists to help Swartz Creek improve to 4-9. Tyler Dodge, Tyler Ladd, and Matt Purcell each scored one goal, and goalie Justin Trebtoske made 22 saves.

Swartz Creek-Clio coach Jake Haynes praised KBH's Smiles.

"KBH United are down a little bit from last year, but (Smiles) was really good tonight," Haynes said. "We had a lot of opportunities, but their goalie was really, really good."

"Our team is coming together, so that helped," Haynes said. "We'll see. We're just starting to play better. We've won three games in a row now. It's just a matter of us playing the right way, keeping it simple and playing the game right."

KBH's Yuchasz took the loss in stride, complimenting Swartz Creek-Clio's play in the game.

"They killed us on the power play. They have an outstanding goalie and their forwards were steller. They can finish and put the puck in the net. I told my team today "you can either give up or you can grow." We are a young, inexperienced team. Our mission is to work hard and keep on improving."
